I'm glad you have had success. My grandmother was went through the Catholic Emigration people. I have no idea how to contact them, does anyone know of a website, address or phone number that I might try?

I thank you very much. One of the addresses is within a half hour of my own home, I will try that one first. Another is within less than two hours of home.

Wow, thanks for that, Sandy! We don't always get to hear the views from the inside out...Were you treated well as we hear some bad stories?...I guess those who had a pretty normal life were less inclined to share...I woiuld hope that there was some humanity & decency in some of these institutions.
How interesting that there was payment per child. Odd that this is not widely known?
Welcome to the Canada board!  J.J.
